Nonchaotic random behaviour in the second order autonomous system

Evidence is presented for the nonchaotic random behaviour in a second-order autonomous deterministic system. This behaviour is different from chaos and strange nonchaotic attractor. The nonchaotic random behaviour is very sensitive to the initial conditions. Slight difference of the initial conditions will generate wholly different phase trajectories. This random behaviour has a transient random nature and is very similar to the coin-throwing case in the classical theory of probability. The existence of the nonchaotic random behaviour not only can be derived from the theoretical analysis, but also is proved by the results of the simulated experiments in this paper.

Detection of determinism and randomness in time series: A method based on phase space overlap of attractors

The space overlap of an attractor reconstructed from a time series with a similarly reconstructed attractor from a random series is shown to be a sensitive measure of determinism. Results for the time series for Henon, Lorenz and Rössler systems as well as a linear stochastic signal and an experimental ECG signal are reported. The overlap increases with increasing levels of added noise, as shown in the case of Henon attractor. Further, the overlap is shown to decrease as noise is reduced in the case of the ECG signal when subjected to singular value decomposition. The scaling behaviour of the overlap with bin size affords a reliable estimate of the fractal dimension of the attractor even with limited data.

Observation of a continuous interior crisis in the Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model

Interior crises are understood as discontinuous changes of the size of a chaotic attractor that occur when an unstable periodic orbit collides with the chaotic attractor. We present here numerical evidence and theoretical reasoning which prove the existence of a chaos-chaos transition in which the change of the attractor size is sudden but continuous. This occurs in the Hindmarsh-Rose model of a neuron, at the transition point between the bursting and spiking dynamics, which are two different dynamic behaviors that this system is able to present. Moreover, besides the change in attractor size, other significant properties of the system undergoing the transitions do change in a relevant qualitative way. The mechanism for such transition is understood in terms of a simple one-dimensional map whose dynamics undergoes a crossover between two different universal behaviors.     

Multistable randomly switching oscillators: The odds of meeting a ghost

We consider oscillators whose parameters randomly switch between two values at equal time intervals. If random switching is fast compared to the oscillator’s intrinsic time scale, one expects the switching system to follow the averaged system, obtained by replacing the random variables with their mean. The averaged system is multistable and one of its attractors is not shared by the switching system and acts as a ghost attractor for the switching system. Starting from the attraction basin of the averaged system’s ghost attractor, the trajectory of the switching system can converge near the ghost attractor with high probability or may escape to another attractor with low probability. Applying our recent general results on convergent properties of randomly switching dynamical systems [1, 2], we derive explicit bounds that connect these probabilities, the switching frequency, and the chosen initial conditions.

A novel four-wing chaotic attractor generated from a three-dimensional quadratic autonomous system

This paper presents a new 3D quadratic autonomous chaotic system which contains five system parameters and three quadratic cross-product terms, and the system can generate a single four-wing chaotic attractor with wide parameter ranges. Through theoretical analysis, the Hopf bifurcation processes are proved to arise at certain equilibrium points. Numerical bifurcation analysis shows that the system has many interesting complex dynamical behaviours; the system trajectory can evolve to a chaotic attractor from a periodic orbit or a fixed point as the proper parameter varies. Finally, an analog electronic circuit is designed to physically realize the chaotic system; the existence of four-wing chaotic attractor is verified by the analog circuit realization.     

Global control of spiral wave dynamics in an excitable domain of circular and elliptical shape

Experiments performed in a thin layer of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky solution subjected to a global feedback demonstrate the existence of the resonance attractor for meandering spiral waves within a domain of circular shape. In an elliptical domain, the resonance attractor can be destroyed due to a saddle-node bifurcation induced by a variation of the domain eccentricity. This conclusion explains the experimentally observed anchoring of spiral waves at certain points of an elliptical domain and is in good quantitative agreement with numerical data obtained for the Oregonator model.     

Bubbling transition to spatial mode excitation in an extended dynamical system

We investigated the transition to spatio-temporal chaos in spatially extended nonlinear dynamical systems possessing an invariant subspace with a low-dimensional attractor. When the latter is chaotic and the subspace is transversely stable we have a spatially homogeneous state only. The onset of spatio-temporal chaos, i.e. the excitation of spatially inhomogeneous modes, occur through the loss of transversal stability of some unstable periodic orbit embedded in the chaotic attractor lying in the invariant subspace. This is a bubbling transition, since there is a switching between spatially homogeneous and nonhomogeneous states with statistical properties of on-off intermittency. Hence the onset of spatio-temporal chaos depends critically both on the existence of a chaotic attractor in the invariant subspace and its being transversely stable or unstable.     

On the asymptotic behaviour of solutions of a stochastic energy balance climate model

We prove the existence of a random global attractor for the multivalued random dynamical system associated to a nonlinear multivalued parabolic equation with a stochastic term of amplitude of the order of $\epsilon$. The equation was initially suggested by North and Cahalan (following a previous deterministic model proposed by M.I. Budyko), for the modeling of some non-deterministic variability (as, for instance, the cyclones which can be treated as a fast varying component and are represented as a white-noise process) in the context of energy balance climate models. We also prove the convergence (in some sense) of the global attractors, when $\epsilon \to 0$, i.e., the convergence to the global attractor for the associated deterministic case ($\epsilon =0$).     

On the existence of non‐supersymmetric black hole attractors for two‐parameter Calabi‐Yau's and attractor equations

We look for possible nonsupersymmetric black hole attractor solutions for type II compactification on (the mirror of) CY₃(2,128) expressed as a degree‐12 hypersurface in WCP ⁴[1,1,2,2,6]. In the process, (a) for points away from the conifold locus, we show that the existence of a non‐supersymmetric attractor along with a consistent choice of fluxes and extremum values of the complex structure moduli, could be connected to the existence of an elliptic curve fibered over C ⁸ which may also be “arithmetic” (in some cases, it is possible to interpret the extremization conditions for the black‐hole superpotential as an endomorphism involving complex multiplication of an arithmetic elliptic curve), and (b) for points near the conifold locus, we show that existence of non‐supersymmetric black‐hole attractors corresponds to a version of A₁‐singularity in the space Image( Z ⁶→ R ²/ Z ₂ (↪ R ³)) fibered over the complex structure moduli space. The (derivatives of the) effective black hole potential can be thought of as a real (integer) projection in a suitable coordinate patch of the Veronese map: CP ⁵→ CP ²⁰, fibered over the complex structure moduli space. We also discuss application of Kallosh's attractor equations (which are equivalent to the extremization of the effective black‐hole potential) for nonsupersymmetric attractors and show that (a) for points away from the conifold locus, the attractor equations demand that the attractor solutions be independent of one of the two complex structure moduli, and (b) for points near the conifold locus, the attractor equations imply switching off of one of the six components of the fluxes. Both these features are more obvious using the attractor equations than the extremization of the black hole potential.

Codimension-two critical behavior in vacuum gravitational collapse

We consider the critical behavior at the threshold of black-hole formation for the five-dimensional vacuum Einstein equations satisfying the cohomogeneity-two triaxial Bianchi type-IX ansatz. Exploiting a discrete symmetry present in this model we predict the existence of a codimension-two attractor. This prediction is confirmed numerically and the codimension-two attractor is identified as a discretely self-similar solution with two unstable modes.     

Symmetry-increasing bifurcation of chaotic attractors

Bifurcation in symmetric is typically associated with spontaneous symmetry breaking. That is, bifurcation is associated with new solution having less symmetry.In this paper we show that symmetry-increasing bifurcation in the discrete dynamics of symmetric mappings is possible (and is perhaps generic). The reason for these bifurcations may be understood as follows. The existence of one attractor in a system with symmetry gives rise to a family of conjugate attractors all related by symmetry. Typically, in computer experiments, what we see is a sequence of symmetry-breaking bifurcations leading to the existence of conjugate chaotic attractors. As the bifurcation parameter is varied these attractors grow in size and merge leading to a single attractor having greater symmetry.We prove a theorem suggesting why this new attractor should have greater symmetry and present a number of striking examples of the symmetric patterns that can be formed by iterating the simplest mappings on the plane with the symmetry of the regular m-gon. In the last section we discuss period-doubling in the presence of symmetry.     

Nonlinear parametric effects and dynamic chaos in a nonautonomous oscillating system with a nonlinear capacitance

A mathematical model is constructed of a nonautonomous dynamic system containing a nonlinear capacitance and possessing a four-dimensional phase space. A numerical investigation is performed of branching processes and phenomena accompanying variations in the frequency and amplitude of an external force. The existence of complex dynamic processes that are a combination of a nonlinear force resonance and a parametric resonance is demonstrated. It is found that both a strange chaotic and a strange nonchaotic attractor exist in the phase space. It is shown that, in the case of a single-frequency external force, the latter attractor exhibits the property of roughness. The results of numerical calculations are confirmed by the results of laboratory experiments.     

On the Strongly Damped Wave Equation

We prove the existence of the universal attractor for the strongly damped semilinear wave equation, in the presence of a quite general nonlinearity of critical growth. When the nonlinearity is subcritical, we prove the existence of an exponential attractor of optimal regularity, having a basin of attraction coinciding with the whole phase-space. As a byproduct, the universal attractor is regular and of finite fractal dimension. Moreover, we carry out a detailed analysis of the asymptotic behavior of the solutions in dependence of the damping coefficient.Research partially supported the Italian MIUR Research Projects Problemi di Frontiera Libera nelle Scienze Applicate, Aspetti Teorici e Applicativi di Equazioni a Derivate Parziali and Metodi Variazionali e Topologici nello Studio dei Fenomeni Nonlineari.

Statistical-thermodynamic approach to a chaotic dynamical system: Exactly solvable examples

The static and dynamic properties of a chaotic attractor of a two-dimensional map are studied, which belongs to a particular class of piecewise continuous invertible maps. Coverings of a natural size to cover the attractor are introduced, so that the microscopic information of the attractor is written on each box composing the cover. The statistical thermodynamics of the scaling indices and the size indices of the boxes is formulated. Analytic forms of the free energy functions of the scaling indices and the size indices of the boxes are obtained for examples of a hyperbolic and a nonhyperbolic chaotic attractor. The statistical thermodynamics of local Lyapunov exponents is also studied and a relation between the thermodynamics of scaling indices and of local Lyapunov exponents is invetigated. For the nonhyperbolic example, the free energy and entropy functions of local Lyapunov exponents are obtained in analytic forms. These results display the existence of phase transitions. A phase transition is seen in the thermodynamics of scaling indices also.
